BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

Breast cancer is a significant health problem for women in the United States and throughout the world. Although advances have been made in the detection and treatment of the disease, breast cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in women, affecting more than 180,000 women in the United States each year. For women in North America, the life-time odds of getting breast cancer are now one in eight.

No universally successful method for the treatment or prevention of breast cancer is currently available. Management of breast cancer currently relies on a combination of early diagnosis (for example, through routine breast screening procedures) and aggressive treatment, which may include one or more of a variety of treatments, such as surgery, radiotherapy, chemotherapy and hormone therapy. The course of treatment for a particular breast cancer is often selected based on a variety of prognostic parameters including an analysis of specific tumor markers.

Although the discovery of BRCA1 and BRCA2 were important steps in identifying key genetic factors involved in breast cancer, it has become clear that mutations in BRCA1 and BRCA2 account for only a fraction of inherited susceptibility to breast cancer. In spite of considerable research into therapies for breast cancer, breast cancer remains difficult to diagnose and treat effectively, and the high mortality observed in breast cancer patients indicates that improvements are needed in the diagnosis, treatment and prevention of the disease.

MicroRNAs are a class of small, non-coding RNAs that control gene expression by hybridizing to and triggering either translational repression or, less frequently, degradation of a messenger RNA (mRNA) target. The discovery and study of miRNAs has revealed miRNA-mediated gene regulatory mechanisms that play important roles in organismal development and various cellular processes, such as cell differentiation, cell growth and cell death. Recent studies suggest that aberrant expression of particular miRNAs may be involved in human diseases, such as neurological disorders and cancer. In particular, misexpression of miR-16-1 and/or miR-15a has been found in human chronic lymphocytic leukemias.

The development and use of microarrays containing all known human microRNAs has permitted a simultaneous analysis of the expression of every miRNA in a sample. These microRNA microarrays have not only been used to confirm that miR-16-1 is deregulated in human CLL cells, but also to generate miRNA expression signatures that are associated with well-defined clinico-pathological features of human CLL.

The use of microRNA microarrays to identify a group of microRNAs, which are differentially-expressed between normal cells and breast cancer cells (for example, an expression signature or expression profile), may help pinpoint specific miRNAs that are involved in breast cancer. Furthermore, the identification of putative targets of these miRNAs may help to unravel their pathogenic role. The present invention provides novel methods and compositions for the diagnosis, prognosis and treatment of breast cancer.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of a breast cancer-specific signature of miRNAs that are differentially-expressed in breast cancer cells, relative to normal control cells.

Accordingly, embodiments of the invention encompass methods of diagnosing whether a subject has, or is at risk for developing, breast cancer, comprising measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in a test sample from the subject and comparing the level of the miR gene product in the test sample to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample. An alteration (for example, an increase, a decrease) in the level of the miR gene product in the test sample, relative to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample, is indicative of the subject either having, or being at risk for developing, breast cancer. In certain embodiments, the at least one miR gene product is selected from the group consisting of miR-125b-1, miR125b-2, miR-145, miR-21, miR-155, miR-10b and combinations thereof.

The level of the at least one miR gene product can be measured using a variety of techniques that are well known to those of skill in the art. In one embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product is measured using Northern blot analysis. In another embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product is measured by reverse transcribing RNA from a test sample obtained from the subject to provide a set of target oligodeoxynucleotides, hybridizing the target oligodeoxynucleotides to a microarray that comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides to provide a hybridization profile for the test sample, and comparing the test sample hybridization profile to a hybridization profile generated from a control sample. An alteration in the signal of at least one miRNA in the test sample relative to the control sample is indicative of the subject either having, or being at risk for developing, breast cancer. In a particular embodiment, the microarray comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides for a substantial portion of the human miRNome. In a further embodiment, the microarray comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides for one or more miRNAs selected from the group consisting of miR-145, miR-21, miR-155, miR-10b, miR-009-1 (miR131-1), miR-34 (miR-170), miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, miR-213, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, let-7i (let-7d-v2), miR-101-1, miR-122a, miR-128b, miR-136, miR-143, miR-149, miR-191, miR-196-1, miR-196-2, miR-202, miR-203, miR-205, miR-206, miR-210 and combinations thereof.

Embodiments of the invention also provide methods of diagnosing a breast cancer associated with one or more prognostic markers, comprising measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in a breast cancer test sample from a subject and comparing the level of the at least one miR gene product in the breast cancer test sample to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample. The breast cancer can be associated with one or more adverse prognostic markers associated with breast cancer, such as, but not limited to, estrogen receptor expression, progesterone receptor expression, positive lymph node metastasis, high proliferative index, detectable p53 expression, advanced tumor stage, and high vascular invasion. In one embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product is measured by reverse transcribing RNA from a test sample obtained from the subject to provide a set of target oligodeoxynucleotides, hybridizing the target oligodeoxynucleotides to a microarray that comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides to provide a hybridization profile for the test sample, and comparing the test sample hybridization profile to a hybridization profile generated from a control sample. An alteration in the signal of at least one miRNA in the test sample relative to the control sample is indicative of the subject either having, or being at risk for developing, a breast cancer associated with the one or more prognostic markers. In a particular embodiment, the microarray comprises at least one miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotide for a miRNA selected from the group consisting of miR-26a, miR-26b, miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-30a-5p, miR-30b, miR-30c, miR-30d, miR-185, miR-191, miR-206, miR-212, let-7c, miR-9-2, miR-15-a, miR-21, miR-30a-s, miR-133a-1, miR-137, miR-153-2, miR-154, miR-181a, miR-203, miR-213, let-7f-1, let-7a-3, let-7a-2, miR-9-3, miR-10b, miR-27a, miR-29a, miR-123, miR-205, let-7d, miR-145, miR-16a, miR-128b and combinations thereof.

Embodiments of the invention also encompass methods of treating breast cancer in a subject, wherein at least one miR gene product is de-regulated (for example, down-regulated, up-regulated) in the cancer cells of the subject. When the at least one isolated miR gene product is down-regulated in the breast cancer cells, the method comprises administering an effective amount of the at least one isolated miR gene product, such that proliferation of cancer cells in the subject is inhibited. In one embodiment, the method comprises administering an effective amount of the at least one isolated miR gene product, provided that the miR gene is not miR-15a or miR-16-1, such that proliferation of cancer cells in the subject is inhibited. When the at least one isolated miR gene product is up-regulated in the cancer cells, the method comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of at least one compound for inhibiting expression of the at least one miR gene, such that proliferation of breast cancer cells is inhibited.

In related embodiments, the invention provides methods of treating breast cancer in a subject, comprising determining the amount of at least one miR gene product in breast cancer cells from the subject, relative to control cells. If expression of the miR gene product is deregulated in breast cancer cells, the methods further comprise altering the amount of the at least one miR gene product expressed in the breast cancer cells. If the amount of the miR gene product expressed in the cancer cells is less than the amount of the miR gene product expressed in control cells, the method comprises administering an effective amount of at least one isolated miR gene product. In one embodiment, the miR gene product is not miR-15a or miR-16-1. If the amount of the miR gene product expressed in the cancer cells is greater than the amount of the miR gene product expressed in control cells, the method comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of at least one compound for inhibiting expression of the at least one miR gene. In one embodiment, the miR gene product is not miR-15a or miR-16-1.

The invention further provides pharmaceutical compositions for treating breast cancer. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise at least one isolated miR gene product and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. In a particular embodiment, the at least one miR gene product corresponds to a miR gene product that has a decreased level of expression in breast cancer cells relative to suitable control cells. In certain embodiments the isolated miR gene product is selected from the group consisting of miR-145, miR-10b, miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, miR-101-1, miR-143 and combinations thereof.

In another embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention comprise at least one miR expression inhibition compound. In a particular embodiment, the at least one miR expression inhibition compound is specific for a miR gene whose expression is greater in breast cancer cells than control cells. In certain embodiments, the miR expression inhibition compound is specific for one or more miR gene products selected from the group consisting of miR-21, miR-155, miR-009-1 (miR131-1), miR-34 (miR-170), miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-213, let-7i (let-7d-v2), miR-122a, miR-128b, miR-136, miR-149, miR-191, miR-196-1, miR-196-2, miR-202, miR-203, miR-206, miR-210, miR-213 and combinations thereof.

Embodiments of the invention also encompass methods of identifying an anti-breast cancer agent, comprising providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in the cell. In one embodiment, the method comprises providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product associated with decreased expression levels in breast cancer cells. An increase in the level of the miR gene product in the cell, relative to a suitable control cell, is indicative of the test agent being an anti-breast cancer agent. In a particular embodiment, the at least one miR gene product associated with decreased expression levels in breast cancer cells is selected from the group consisting of miR-145, miR-10b, miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, miR-101-1, miR-143 and combinations thereof.

In other embodiments the method comprises providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product associated with increased expression levels in breast cancer cells. A decrease in the level of the miR gene product in the cell, relative to a suitable control cell, is indicative of the test agent being an anti-breast cancer agent.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The present invention is based, in part, on the identification of particular miRNAs whose expression is altered in breast cancer cells relative to normal control cells, and microRNAs whose expression is altered in breast cancer cells associated with particular prognostic features, relative to breast cancer cells lacking such features.

As used herein interchangeably, a “miR gene product,” “microRNA,” “miR,” or “miRNA” refers to the unprocessed or processed RNA transcript from an miR gene. As the miR gene products are not translated into protein, the term “miR gene products” does not include proteins. The unprocessed miR gene transcript is also called an “miR precursor,” and typically comprises an RNA transcript of about 70-100 nucleotides in length. The miR precursor can be processed by digestion with an RNAse (for example, Dicer, Argonaut, or RNAse III, for example, E. coli RNAse III)) into an active 19-25 nucleotide RNA molecule. This active 19-25 nucleotide RNA molecule is also called the “processed” miR gene transcript or “mature” miRNA.

The active 19-25 nucleotide RNA molecule can be obtained from the miR precursor through natural processing routes (for example, using intact cells or cell lysates) or by synthetic processing routes (for example, using isolated processing enzymes, such as isolated Dicer, Argonaut, or RNAase III). It is understood that the active 19-25 nucleotide RNA molecule can also be produced directly by biological or chemical synthesis, without having been processed from the miR precursor.

The sequences of 187 miR gene products are provided in Table 1. All nucleic acid sequences herein are given in the 5′ to 3′ direction. In addition, genes are represented by italics, and gene products are represented by normal type; for example, mir-17 is the gene and miR-17 is the gene product.

The present invention encompasses methods of diagnosing whether a subject has, or is at risk for developing, breast cancer, comprising measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in a test sample from the subject and comparing the level of the miR gene product in the test sample to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample. As used herein, a “subject” can be any mammal that has, or is suspected of having, breast cancer. In a particular embodiment, the subject is a human who has, or is suspected of having, breast cancer.

The breast cancer can be any form of breast cancer and may be associated with one or more prognostic markers or features, including, but not limited to, estrogen receptor expression, progesterone receptor expression, lymph node metastasis, high proliferative index, detectable p53 expression, advanced tumor stage, and high vascular invasion. The prognostic marker can be associated with an adverse or negative prognosis, or it may be associated with a good or positive prognosis.

All sequences are human.

The level of at least one miR gene product can be measured in cells of a biological sample obtained from the subject. For example, a tissue sample can be removed from a subject suspected of having breast cancer associated with by conventional biopsy techniques. In another example, a blood sample can be removed from the subject, and white blood cells can be isolated for DNA extraction by standard techniques. The blood or tissue sample is preferably obtained from the subject prior to initiation of radiotherapy, chemotherapy or other therapeutic treatment. A corresponding control tissue or blood sample can be obtained from unaffected tissues of the subject, from a normal human individual or population of normal individuals, or from cultured cells corresponding to the majority of cells in the subject's sample. The control tissue or blood sample is then processed along with the sample from the subject, so that the levels of miR gene product produced from a given miR gene in cells from the subject's sample can be compared to the corresponding miR gene product levels from cells of the control sample.

An alteration (i.e., an increase or decrease) in the level of a miR gene product in the sample obtained from the subject, relative to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample, is indicative of the presence of breast cancer in the subject. In one embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product in the test sample is greater than the level of the corresponding miR gene product in the control sample (i.e., expression of the miR gene product is “up-regulated”). As used herein, expression of a miR gene product is “up-regulated” when the amount of miR gene product in a cell or tissue sample from a subject is greater than the amount the same gene product in a control cell or tissue sample. In another embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product in the test sample is less than the level of the corresponding miR gene product in the control sample (i.e., expression of the miR gene product is “down-regulated”). As used herein, expression of a miR gene is “down-regulated” when the amount of miR gene product produced from that gene in a cell or tissue sample from a subject is less than the amount produced from the same gene in a control cell or tissue sample. The relative miR gene expression in the control and normal samples can be determined with respect to one or more RNA expression standards. The standards can comprise, for example, a zero miR gene expression level, the miR gene expression level in a standard cell line, or the average level of miR gene expression previously obtained for a population of normal human controls.

The level of a miR gene product in a sample can be measured using any technique that is suitable for detecting RNA expression levels in a biological sample. Suitable techniques for determining RNA expression levels in cells from a biological sample (for example, Northern blot analysis, RT-PCR, in situ hybridization) are well known to those of skill in the art. In a particular embodiment, the level of at least one miR gene product is detected using Northern blot analysis. For example, total cellular RNA can be purified from cells by homogenization in the presence of nucleic acid extraction buffer, followed by centrifugation. Nucleic acids are precipitated, and DNA is removed by treatment with DNase and precipitation. The RNA molecules are then separated by gel electrophoresis on agarose gels according to standard techniques, and transferred to nitrocellulose filters. The RNA is then immobilized on the filters by heating. Detection and quantification of specific RNA is accomplished using appropriately labeled DNA or RNA probes complementary to the RNA in question. See, for example, Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, J. Sambrook et al., eds., 2nd edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1989, Chapter 7, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated by reference.

Suitable probes for Northern blot hybridization of a given miR gene product can be produced from the nucleic acid sequences provided in Table 1. Methods for preparation of labeled DNA and RNA probes, and the conditions for hybridization thereof to target nucleotide sequences, are described in Molecular Cloning: A Laboratory Manual, J. Sambrook et al., eds., 2nd edition, Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 1989, Chapters 10 and 11, the disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

For example, the nucleic acid probe can be labeled with, for example, a radionuclide, such as ³H, ³²P, ³³P, ¹⁴C, or ³⁵S; a heavy metal; or a ligand capable of functioning as a specific binding pair member for a labeled ligand (for example, biotin, avidin or an antibody), a fluorescent molecule, a chemiluminescent molecule, an enzyme or the like.

Probes can be labeled to high specific activity by either the nick translation method of Rigby et al. (1977), J. Mol. Biol. 113:237-251 or by the random priming method of Fienberg et al. (1983), Anal. Biochem. 132:6-13, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. The latter is the method of choice for synthesizing ³²P-labeled probes of high specific activity from single-stranded DNA or from RNA templates. For example, by replacing preexisting nucleotides with highly radioactive nucleotides according to the nick translation method, it is possible to prepare ³²P-labeled nucleic acid probes with a specific activity well in excess of 10⁸ cpm/microgram. Autoradiographic detection of hybridization can then be performed by exposing hybridized filters to photographic film. Densitometric scanning of the photographic films exposed by the hybridized filters provides an accurate measurement of miR gene transcript levels. Using another approach, miR gene transcript levels can be quantified by computerized imaging systems, such the Molecular Dynamics 400-B 2D Phosphorimager available from Amersham Biosciences, Piscataway, N.J.

Where radionuclide labeling of DNA or RNA probes is not practical, the random-primer method can be used to incorporate an analogue, for example, the dTTP analogue 5-(N—(N-biotinyl-epsilon-aminocaproyl)-3-aminoallyl)deoxyuridine triphosphate, into the probe molecule. The biotinylated probe oligonucleotide can be detected by reaction with biotin-binding proteins, such as avidin, streptavidin, and antibodies (for example, anti-biotin antibodies) coupled to fluorescent dyes or enzymes that produce color reactions.

In addition to Northern and other RNA hybridization techniques, determining the levels of RNA transcripts can be accomplished using the technique of in situ hybridization. This technique requires fewer cells than the Northern blotting technique, and involves depositing whole cells onto a microscope cover slip and probing the nucleic acid content of the cell with a solution containing radioactive or otherwise labeled nucleic acid (for example, cDNA or RNA) probes. This technique is particularly well-suited for analyzing tissue biopsy samples from subjects. The practice of the in situ hybridization technique is described in more detail in U.S. Pat. No. 5,427,916, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Suitable probes for in situ hybridization of a given miR gene product can be produced from the nucleic acid sequences provided in Table 1, as described above.

The relative number of miR gene transcripts in cells can also be determined by reverse transcription of miR gene transcripts, followed by amplification of the reverse-transcribed transcripts by polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR). The levels of miR gene transcripts can be quantified in comparison with an internal standard, for example, the level of mRNA from a “housekeeping” gene present in the same sample. A suitable “housekeeping” gene for use as an internal standard includes, for example, myosin or glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (G3PDH). The methods for quantitative RT-PCR and variations thereof are within the skill in the art.

In some instances, it may be desirable to simultaneously determine the expression level of a plurality of different miR gene products in a sample. In other instances, it may be desirable to determine the expression level of the transcripts of all known miR genes correlated with a cancer. Assessing cancer-specific expression levels for hundreds of miR genes is time consuming and requires a large amount of total RNA (at least 20 μg for each Northern blot) and autoradiographic techniques that require radioactive isotopes.

To overcome these limitations, an oligolibrary, in microchip format (i.e., a microarray), may be constructed containing a set of probe oligodeoxynucleotides that are specific for a set of miR genes. Using such a microarray, the expression level of multiple microRNAs in a biological sample can be determined by reverse transcribing the RNAs to generate a set of target oligodeoxynucleotides, and hybridizing them to probe oligodeoxynucleotides on the microarray to generate a hybridization, or expression, profile. The hybridization profile of the test sample can then be compared to that of a control sample to determine which microRNAs have an altered expression level in breast cancer cells. As used herein, “probe oligonucleotide” or “probe oligodeoxynucleotide” refers to an oligonucleotide that is capable of hybridizing to a target oligonucleotide. “Target oligonucleotide” or “target oligodeoxynucleotide” refers to a molecule to be detected (for example, via hybridization). By “miR-specific probe oligonucleotide” or “probe oligonucleotide specific for a miR” is meant a probe oligonucleotide that has a sequence selected to hybridize to a specific miR gene product, or to a reverse transcript of the specific miR gene product.

An “expression profile” or “hybridization profile” of a particular sample is essentially a fingerprint of the state of the sample; while two states may have any particular gene similarly expressed, the evaluation of a number of genes simultaneously allows the generation of a gene expression profile that is unique to the state of the cell. That is, normal tissue may be distinguished from breast cancer tissue, and within breast cancer tissue, different prognosis states (good or poor long term survival prospects, for example) may be determined. By comparing expression profiles of breast cancer tissue in different states, information regarding which genes are important (including both up- and down-regulation of genes) in each of these states is obtained. The identification of sequences that are differentially expressed in breast cancer tissue or normal breast tissue, as well as differential expression resulting in different prognostic outcomes, allows the use of this information in a number of ways. For example, a particular treatment regime may be evaluated (for example, to determine whether a chemotherapeutic drug act to improve the long-term prognosis in a particular patient). Similarly, diagnosis may be done or confirmed by comparing patient samples with the known expression profiles. Furthermore, these gene expression profiles (or individual genes) allow screening of drug candidates that suppress the breast cancer expression profile or convert a poor prognosis profile to a better prognosis profile.

Accordingly, the invention provides methods of diagnosing whether a subject has, or is at risk for developing, breast cancer, comprising reverse transcribing RNA from a test sample obtained from the subject to provide a set of target oligo-deoxynucleotides, hybridizing the target oligo-deoxynucleotides to a microarray comprising miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides to provide a hybridization profile for the test sample, and comparing the test sample hybridization profile to a hybridization profile generated from a control sample, wherein an alteration in the signal of at least one miRNA is indicative of the subject either having, or being at risk for developing, breast cancer. In one embodiment, the microarray comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides for a substantial portion of the human miRNome. In a particular embodiment, the microarray comprises miRNA-specific probe oligo-nucleotides for one or more miRNAs selected from the group consisting of miR-125b, miR-145, miR-21, miR-155, miR-10b, miR-009-1 (miR131-1), miR-34 (miR-170), miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, miR-213, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, let-7i (let-7d-v2), miR-101-1, miR-122a, miR-128b, miR-136, miR-143, miR-149, miR-191, miR-196-1, miR-196-2, miR-202, miR-203, miR-206, miR-210 and combinations thereof. In a further embodiment, the at least one miR gene product is selected from the group consisting of miR-125b, miR-145, miR-21, miR-155, miR-10b and combinations thereof.

The microarray can be prepared from gene-specific oligonucleotide probes generated from known miRNA sequences. The array may contain two different oligonucleotide probes for each miRNA, one containing the active, mature sequence and the other being specific for the precursor of the miRNA. The array may also contain controls, such as one or more mouse sequences differing from human orthologs by only a few bases, which can serve as controls for hybridization stringency conditions. tRNAs from both species may also be printed on the microchip, providing an internal, relatively stable, positive control for specific hybridization. One or more appropriate controls for non-specific hybridization may also be included on the microchip. For this purpose, sequences are selected based upon the absence of any homology with any known miRNAs.

The microarray may be fabricated using techniques known in the art. For example, probe oligonucleotides of an appropriate length, for example, 40 nucleotides, are 5′-amine modified at position C6 and printed using commercially available microarray systems, for example, the GeneMachine OmniGrid™ 100 Microarrayer and Amersham CodeLink™ activated slides. Labeled cDNA oligomer corresponding to the target RNAs is prepared by reverse transcribing the target RNA with labeled primer. Following first strand synthesis, the RNA/DNA hybrids are denatured to degrade the RNA templates. The labeled target cDNAs thus prepared are then hybridized to the microarray chip under hybridizing conditions, for example, 6×SSPE/30% formamide at 25° C. for 18 hours, followed by washing in 0.75×TNT at 37° C. for 40 minutes. At positions on the array where the immobilized probe DNA recognizes a complementary target cDNA in the sample, hybridization occurs. The labeled target cDNA marks the exact position on the array where binding occurs, allowing automatic detection and quantification. The output consists of a list of hybridization events, indicating the relative abundance of specific cDNA sequences, and therefore the relative abundance of the corresponding complementary miRs, in the patient sample. According to one embodiment, the labeled cDNA oligomer is a biotin-labeled cDNA, prepared from a biotin-labeled primer. The microarray is then processed by direct detection of the biotin-containing transcripts using, for example, Streptavidin-Alexa647 conjugate, and scanned utilizing conventional scanning methods. Image intensities of each spot on the array are proportional to the abundance of the corresponding miR in the patient sample.

The use of the array has several advantages for miRNA expression detection. First, the global expression of several hundred genes can be identified in the same sample at one time point. Second, through careful design of the oligonucleotide probes, expression of both mature and precursor molecules can be identified. Third, in comparison with Northern blot analysis, the chip requires a small amount of RNA, and provides reproducible results using 2.5 μg of total RNA. The relatively limited number of miRNAs (a few hundred per species) allows the construction of a common microarray for several species, with distinct oligonucleotide probes for each. Such a tool would allow for analysis of trans-species expression for each known miR under various conditions.

In addition to use for quantitative expression level assays of specific miRs, a microchip containing miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides corresponding to a substantial portion of the miRNome, preferably the entire miRNome, may be employed to carry out miR gene expression profiling, for analysis of miR expression patterns. Distinct miR signatures can be associated with established disease markers, or directly with a disease state.

According to the expression profiling methods described herein, total RNA from a sample from a subject suspected of having a cancer (such as breast cancer) is quantitatively reverse transcribed to provide a set of labeled target oligodeoxynucleotides complementary to the RNA in the sample. The target oligodeoxynucleotides are then hybridized to a microarray comprising miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides to provide a hybridization profile for the sample. The result is a hybridization profile for the sample representing the expression pattern of miRNA in the sample. The hybridization profile comprises the signal from the binding of the target oligodeoxynucleotides from the sample to the miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides in the microarray. The profile may be recorded as the presence or absence of binding (signal vs. zero signal). More preferably, the profile recorded includes the intensity of the signal from each hybridization. The profile is compared to the hybridization profile generated from a normal, noncancerous, control sample. An alteration in the signal is indicative of the presence of the cancer in the subject.

Other techniques for measuring miR gene expression are also within the skill in the art, and include various techniques for measuring rates of RNA transcription and degradation.

The invention also provides methods of diagnosing a breast cancer associated with one or more prognostic markers, comprising measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in a breast cancer test sample from a subject and comparing the level of the at least one miR gene product in the breast cancer test sample to the level of a corresponding miR gene product in a control sample. An alteration (for example, an increase, a decrease) in the signal of at least one miRNA in the test sample relative to the control sample is indicative of the subject either having, or being at risk for developing, breast cancer associated with the one or more prognostic markers.

The breast cancer can be associated with one or more prognostic markers or features, including, a marker associated with an adverse (negative) prognosis, or a marker associated with a good (positive) prognosis. In certain embodiments, the breast cancer that is diagnosed using the methods described herein is associated with one or more adverse prognostic features selected from the group consisting of estrogen receptor expression, progesterone receptor expression, positive lymph node metastasis, high proliferative index, detectable p53 expression, advanced tumor stage, and high vascular invasion. Particular microRNAs whose expression is altered in breast cancer cells associated with each of these prognostic markers are described herein (see, for example, Example 3 and FIG. 4). In one embodiment, the level of the at least one miR gene product is measured by reverse transcribing RNA from a test sample obtained from the subject to provide a set of target oligodeoxynucleotides, hybridizing the target oligodeoxynucleotides to a microarray that comprises miRNA-specific probe oligonucleotides to provide a hybridization profile for the test sample, and comparing the test sample hybridization profile to a hybridization profile generated from a control sample.

Without wishing to be bound by any one theory, it is believed that alterations in the level of one or more miR gene products in cells can result in the deregulation of one or more intended targets for these miRs, which can lead to the formation of breast cancer. Therefore, altering the level of the miR gene product (for example, by decreasing the level of a miR that is up-regulated in breast cancer cells and/or by increasing the level of a miR that is down-regulated in cancer cells) may successfully treat the breast cancer. Examples of putative gene targets for miRNAs that are deregulated in breast cancer tissues are described herein (see, for example, Example 2 and Table 4).

Accordingly, the present invention encompasses methods of treating breast cancer in a subject, wherein at least one miR gene product is de-regulated (for example, down-regulated or up-regulated) in the cancer cells of the subject. When the at least one isolated miR gene product is down-regulated in the breast cancer cells, the method comprises administering an effective amount of the at least one isolated miR gene product, provided that the miR gene is not miR15 or miR16, such that proliferation of cancer cells in the subject is inhibited. When the at least one isolated miR gene product is up-regulated in the cancer cells, the method comprises administering to the subject an effective amount of at least one compound for inhibiting expression of the at least one miR gene, referred to herein as miR gene expression inhibition compounds, such that proliferation of breast cancer cells is inhibited.

The terms “treat”, “treating” and “treatment”, as used herein, refer to ameliorating symptoms associated with a disease or condition, for example, breast cancer, including preventing or delaying the onset of the disease symptoms, and/or lessening the severity or frequency of symptoms of the disease or condition. The terms “subject” and “individual” are defined herein to include animals, such as mammals, including but not limited to, primates, cows, sheep, goats, horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice or other bovine, ovine, equine, canine, feline, rodent, or murine species. In a preferred embodiment, the animal is a human.

As used herein, an “effective amount” of an isolated miR gene product is an amount sufficient to inhibit proliferation of a cancer cell in a subject suffering from breast cancer. One skilled in the art can readily determine an effective amount of an miR gene product to be administered to a given subject, by taking into account factors, such as the size and weight of the subject; the extent of disease penetration; the age, health and sex of the subject; the route of administration; and whether the administration is regional or systemic.

For example, an effective amount of an isolated miR gene product can be based on the approximate weight of a tumor mass to be treated. The approximate weight of a tumor mass can be determined by calculating the approximate volume of the mass, wherein one cubic centimeter of volume is roughly equivalent to one gram. An effective amount of the isolated miR gene product based on the weight of a tumor mass can be in the range of about 10-500 micrograms/gram of tumor mass. In certain embodiments, the tumor mass can be at least about 10 micrograms/gram of tumor mass, at least about 60 micrograms/gram of tumor mass or at least about 100 micrograms/gram of tumor mass.

An effective amount of an isolated miR gene product can also be based on the approximate or estimated body weight of a subject to be treated. Preferably, such effective amounts are administered parenterally or enterally, as described herein. For example, an effective amount of the isolated miR gene product is administered to a subject can range from about 5-3000 micrograms/kg of body weight, from about 700-1000 micrograms/kg of body weight, or greater than about 1000 micrograms/kg of body weight.

One skilled in the art can also readily determine an appropriate dosage regimen for the administration of an isolated miR gene product to a given subject. For example, a miR gene product can be administered to the subject once (for example, as a single injection or deposition). Alternatively, a miR gene product can be administered once or twice daily to a subject for a period of from about three to about twenty-eight days, more particularly from about seven to about ten days. In a particular dosage regimen, a miR gene product is administered once a day for seven days. Where a dosage regimen comprises multiple administrations, it is understood that the effective amount of the miR gene product administered to the subject can comprise the total amount of gene product administered over the entire dosage regimen.

As used herein, an “isolated” miR gene product is one which is synthesized, or altered or removed from the natural state through human intervention. For example, a synthetic miR gene product, or a miR gene product partially or completely separated from the coexisting materials of its natural state, is considered to be “isolated.” An isolated miR gene product can exist in substantially-purified form, or can exist in a cell into which the miR gene product has been delivered. Thus, a miR gene product which is deliberately delivered to, or expressed in, a cell is considered an “isolated” miR gene product. A miR gene product produced inside a cell from a miR precursor molecule is also considered to be “isolated” molecule.

Isolated miR gene products can be obtained using a number of standard techniques. For example, the miR gene products can be chemically synthesized or recombinantly produced using methods known in the art. In one embodiment, miR gene products are chemically synthesized using appropriately protected ribonucleoside phosphoramidites and a conventional DNA/RNA synthesizer. Commercial suppliers of synthetic RNA molecules or synthesis reagents include, for example, Proligo (Hamburg, Germany), Dharmacon Research (Lafayette, Colo., U.S.A.), Pierce Chemical (part of Perbio Science, Rockford, Ill., U.S.A.), Glen Research (Sterling, Va., U.S.A.), ChemGenes (Ashland, Mass., U.S.A.) and Cruachem (Glasgow, UK).

Alternatively, the miR gene products can be expressed from recombinant circular or linear DNA plasmids using any suitable promoter. Suitable promoters for expressing RNA from a plasmid include, for example, the U6 or H1 RNA pol III promoter sequences, or the cytomegalovirus promoters. Selection of other suitable promoters is within the skill in the art. The recombinant plasmids of the invention can also comprise inducible or regulatable promoters for expression of the miR gene products in cancer cells.

The miR gene products that are expressed from recombinant plasmids can be isolated from cultured cell expression systems by standard techniques. The miR gene products which are expressed from recombinant plasmids can also be delivered to, and expressed directly in, the cancer cells. The use of recombinant plasmids to deliver the miR gene products to cancer cells is discussed in more detail below.

The miR gene products can be expressed from a separate recombinant plasmid, or they can be expressed from the same recombinant plasmid. In one embodiment, the miR gene products are expressed as RNA precursor molecules from a single plasmid, and the precursor molecules are processed into the functional miR gene product by a suitable processing system, including, but not limited to, processing systems extant within a cancer cell. Other suitable processing systems include, for example, the in vitro Drosophila cell lysate system (for example, as described in U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2002/0086356 to Tuschl et al., the entire disclosure of which are incorporated herein by reference) and the E. coli RNAse III system (for example, as described in U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2004/0014113 to Yang et al., the entire disclosure of which are incorporated herein by reference).

Selection of plasmids suitable for expressing the miR gene products, methods for inserting nucleic acid sequences into the plasmid to express the gene products, and methods of delivering the recombinant plasmid to the cells of interest are within the skill in the art. See, for example, Zeng et al. (2002), Molecular Cell 9:1327-1333; Tuschl (2002), Nat. Biotechnol, 20:446-448; Brummelkamp et al. (2002), Science 296:550-553; Miyagishi et al. (2002), Nat. Biotechnol. 20:497-500; Paddison et al. (2002), Genes Dev. 16:948-958; Lee et al. (2002), Nat. Biotechnol. 20:500-505; and Paul et al. (2002), Nat. Biotechnol. 20:505-508, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

In one embodiment, a plasmid expressing the miR gene products comprises a sequence encoding a miR precursor RNA under the control of the CMV intermediate-early promoter. As used herein, “under the control” of a promoter means that the nucleic acid sequences encoding the miR gene product are located 3′ of the promoter, so that the promoter can initiate transcription of the miR gene product coding sequences.

The miR gene products can also be expressed from recombinant viral vectors. It is contemplated that the miR gene products can be expressed from two separate recombinant viral vectors, or from the same viral vector. The RNA expressed from the recombinant viral vectors can either be isolated from cultured cell expression systems by standard techniques, or can be expressed directly in cancer cells. The use of recombinant viral vectors to deliver the miR gene products to cancer cells is discussed in more detail below.

The recombinant viral vectors of the invention comprise sequences encoding the miR gene products and any suitable promoter for expressing the RNA sequences. Suitable promoters include, for example, the U6 or H1 RNA pol III promoter sequences, or the cytomegalovirus promoters. Selection of other suitable promoters is within the skill in the art. The recombinant viral vectors of the invention can also comprise inducible or regulatable promoters for expression of the miR gene products in a cancer cell.

Any viral vector capable of accepting the coding sequences for the miR gene products can be used; for example, vectors derived from adenovirus (AV); adeno-associated virus (AAV); retroviruses (for example, lentiviruses (LV), Rhabdoviruses, murine leukemia virus); herpes virus, and the like. The tropism of the viral vectors can be modified by pseudotyping the vectors with envelope proteins or other surface antigens from other viruses, or by substituting different viral capsid proteins, as appropriate.

For example, lentiviral vectors of the invention can be pseudotyped with surface proteins from vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV), rabies, Ebola, Mokola, and the like. AAV vectors of the invention can be made to target different cells by engineering the vectors to express different capsid protein serotypes. For example, an AAV vector expressing a serotype 2 capsid on a serotype 2 genome is called AAV 2/2. This serotype 2 capsid gene in the AAV 2/2 vector can be replaced by a serotype 5 capsid gene to produce an AAV 2/5 vector. Techniques for constructing AAV vectors that express different capsid protein serotypes are within the skill in the art; see, for example, Rabinowitz, J. E., et al. (2002), J. Virol. 76:791-801, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Selection of recombinant viral vectors suitable for use in the invention, methods for inserting nucleic acid sequences for expressing RNA into the vector, methods of delivering the viral vector to the cells of interest, and recovery of the expressed RNA products are within the skill in the art. See, for example, Dornburg (1995), Gene Therap. 2:301-310; Eglitis (1988), Biotechniques 6:608-614; Miller (1990), Hum. Gene Therap. 1:5-14; and Anderson (1998), Nature 392:25-30, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Particularly suitable viral vectors are those derived from AV and AAV. A suitable AV vector for expressing the miR gene products, a method for constructing the recombinant AV vector, and a method for delivering the vector into target cells, are described in Xia et al. (2002), Nat. Biotech. 20:1006-1010, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference. Suitable AAV vectors for expressing the miR gene products, methods for constructing the recombinant AAV vector, and methods for delivering the vectors into target cells are described in Samulski et al. (1987), J. Virol. 61:3096-3101; Fisher et al. (1996), J. Virol., 70:520-532; Samulski et al. (1989), J. Virol. 63:3822-3826; U.S. Pat. No. 5,252,479; U.S. Pat. No. 5,139,941; International Patent Application No. WO 94/13788; and International Patent Application No. WO 93/24641, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference. In one embodiment, the miR gene products are expressed from a single recombinant AAV vector comprising the CMV intermediate early promoter.

In a certain embodiment, a recombinant AAV viral vector of the invention comprises a nucleic acid sequence encoding a miR precursor RNA in operable connection with a polyT termination sequence under the control of a human U6 RNA promoter. As used herein, “in operable connection with a polyT termination sequence” means that the nucleic acid sequences encoding the sense or antisense strands are immediately adjacent to the polyT termination signal in the 5′ direction. During transcription of the miR sequences from the vector, the polyT termination signals act to terminate transcription.

In other embodiments of the treatment methods of the invention, an effective amount of at least one compound which inhibits miR expression can also be administered to the subject. As used herein, “inhibiting miR expression” means that the production of the active, mature form of miR gene product after treatment is less than the amount produced prior to treatment. One skilled in the art can readily determine whether miR expression has been inhibited in a cancer cell, using for example the techniques for determining miR transcript level discussed above for the diagnostic method Inhibition can occur at the level of gene expression (such as, by inhibiting transcription of a miR gene encoding the miR gene product) or at the level of processing (such as, by inhibiting processing of a miR precursor into a mature, active miR).

As used herein, an “effective amount” of a compound that inhibits miR expression is an amount sufficient to inhibit proliferation of a cancer cell in a subject suffering from a cancer associated with a cancer-associated chromosomal feature. One skilled in the art can readily determine an effective amount of an miR expression-inhibiting compound to be administered to a given subject, by taking into account factors, such as the size and weight of the subject; the extent of disease penetration; the age, health and sex of the subject; the route of administration; and whether the administration is regional or systemic.

For example, an effective amount of the expression-inhibiting compound can be based on the approximate weight of a tumor mass to be treated. The approximate weight of a tumor mass can be determined by calculating the approximate volume of the mass, wherein one cubic centimeter of volume is roughly equivalent to one gram. An effective amount based on the weight of a tumor mass can be between about 10-500 micrograms/gram of tumor mass, at least about 10 micrograms/gram of tumor mass, at least about 60 micrograms/gram of tumor mass, and at least about 100 micrograms/gram of tumor mass.

An effective amount of a compound that inhibits miR expression can also be based on the approximate or estimated body weight of a subject to be treated. Such effective amounts are administered parenterally or enterally, among others, as described herein. For example, an effective amount of the expression-inhibiting compound administered to a subject can range from about 5-3000 micrograms/kg of body weight, from about 700-1000 micrograms/kg of body weight, or it can be greater than about 1000 micrograms/kg of body weight.

One skilled in the art can also readily determine an appropriate dosage regimen for administering a compound that inhibits miR expression to a given subject. For example, an expression-inhibiting compound can be administered to the subject once (for example, as a single injection or deposition). Alternatively, an expression-inhibiting compound can be administered once or twice daily to a subject for a period of from about three to about twenty-eight days, more preferably from about seven to about ten days. In a particular dosage regimen, an expression-inhibiting compound is administered once a day for seven days. Where a dosage regimen comprises multiple administrations, it is understood that the effective amount of the expression-inhibiting compound administered to the subject can comprise the total amount of compound administered over the entire dosage regimen.

Suitable compounds for inhibiting miR gene expression include double-stranded RNA (such as short- or small-interfering RNA or “siRNA”), antisense nucleic acids, and enzymatic RNA molecules, such as ribozymes. Each of these compounds can be targeted to a given miR gene product and destroy or induce the destruction of the target miR gene product.

For example, expression of a given miR gene can be inhibited by inducing RNA interference of the miR gene with an isolated double-stranded RNA (“dsRNA”) molecule which has at least 90%, for example at least 95%, at least 98%, at least 99% or 100%, sequence homology with at least a portion of the miR gene product. In a particular embodiment, the dsRNA molecule is a “short or small interfering RNA” or “siRNA.”

siRNA useful in the present methods comprise short double-stranded RNA from about 17 nucleotides to about 29 nucleotides in length, preferably from about 19 to about 25 nucleotides in length. The siRNA comprise a sense RNA strand and a complementary antisense RNA strand annealed together by standard Watson-Crick base-pairing interactions (hereinafter “base-paired”). The sense strand comprises a nucleic acid sequence which is substantially identical to a nucleic acid sequence contained within the target miR gene product.

As used herein, a nucleic acid sequence in a siRNA which is “substantially identical” to a target sequence contained within the target mRNA is a nucleic acid sequence that is identical to the target sequence, or that differs from the target sequence by one or two nucleotides. The sense and antisense strands of the siRNA can comprise two complementary, single-stranded RNA molecules, or can comprise a single molecule in which two complementary portions are base-paired and are covalently linked by a single-stranded “hairpin” area.

The siRNA can also be altered RNA that differs from naturally-occurring RNA by the addition, deletion, substitution and/or alteration of one or more nucleotides. Such alterations can include addition of non-nucleotide material, such as to the end(s) of the siRNA or to one or more internal nucleotides of the siRNA, or modifications that make the siRNA resistant to nuclease digestion, or the substitution of one or more nucleotides in the siRNA with deoxyribonucleotides.

One or both strands of the siRNA can also comprise a 3′ overhang. As used herein, a “3′ overhang” refers to at least one unpaired nucleotide extending from the 3′-end of a duplexed RNA strand. Thus, in certain embodiments, the siRNA comprises at least one 3′ overhang of from 1 to about 6 nucleotides (which includes ribonucleotides or deoxyribonucleotides) in length, from 1 to about 5 nucleotides in length, from 1 to about 4 nucleotides in length, or from about 2 to about 4 nucleotides in length. In a particular embodiment, the 3′ overhang is present on both strands of the siRNA, and is 2 nucleotides in length. For example, each strand of the siRNA can comprise 3′ overhangs of dithymidylic acid (“TT”) or diuridylic acid (“uu”).

The siRNA can be produced chemically or biologically, or can be expressed from a recombinant plasmid or viral vector, as described above for the isolated miR gene products. Exemplary methods for producing and testing dsRNA or siRNA molecules are described in U.S. Published Patent Application No. 2002/0173478 to Gewirtz and in U.S. Pat. No. 7,148,342 to Reich et al., the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Expression of a given miR gene can also be inhibited by an antisense nucleic acid. As used herein, an “antisense nucleic acid” refers to a nucleic acid molecule that binds to target RNA by means of RNA-RNA or RNA-DNA or RNA-peptide nucleic acid interactions, which alters the activity of the target RNA. Antisense nucleic acids suitable for use in the present methods are single-stranded nucleic acids (for example, RNA, DNA, RNA-DNA chimeras, PNA) that generally comprise a nucleic acid sequence complementary to a contiguous nucleic acid sequence in an miR gene product. The antisense nucleic acid can comprise a nucleic acid sequence that is 50-100% complementary, 75-100% complementary, or 95-100% complementary to a contiguous nucleic acid sequence in an miR gene product. Nucleic acid sequences for the miR gene products are provided in Table 1. Without wishing to be bound by any theory, it is believed that the antisense nucleic acids activate RNase H or another cellular nuclease that digests the miR gene product/antisense nucleic acid duplex.

Antisense nucleic acids can also contain modifications to the nucleic acid backbone or to the sugar and base moieties (or their equivalent) to enhance target specificity, nuclease resistance, delivery or other properties related to efficacy of the molecule. Such modifications include cholesterol moieties, duplex intercalators, such as acridine, or one or more nuclease-resistant groups.

Antisense nucleic acids can be produced chemically or biologically, or can be expressed from a recombinant plasmid or viral vector, as described above for the isolated miR gene products. Exemplary methods for producing and testing are within the skill in the art; see, for example, Stein and Cheng (1993), Science 261:1004 and U.S. Pat. No. 5,849,902 to Woolf et al., the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Expression of a given miR gene can also be inhibited by an enzymatic nucleic acid. As used herein, an “enzymatic nucleic acid” refers to a nucleic acid comprising a substrate binding region that has complementarity to a contiguous nucleic acid sequence of an miR gene product, and which is able to specifically cleave the miR gene product. The enzymatic nucleic acid substrate binding region can be, for example, 50-100% complementary, 75-100% complementary, or 95-100% complementary to a contiguous nucleic acid sequence in a miR gene product. The enzymatic nucleic acids can also comprise modifications at the base, sugar, and/or phosphate groups. An exemplary enzymatic nucleic acid for use in the present methods is a ribozyme.

The enzymatic nucleic acids can be produced chemically or biologically, or can be expressed from a recombinant plasmid or viral vector, as described above for the isolated miR gene products. Exemplary methods for producing and testing dsRNA or siRNA molecules are described in Werner and Uhlenbeck (1995), Nucl. Acids Res. 23:2092-96; Hammann et al. (1999), Antisense and Nucleic Acid Drug Dev. 9:25-31; and U.S. Pat. No. 4,987,071 to Cech et al, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Administration of at least one miR gene product, or at least one compound for inhibiting miR expression, will inhibit the proliferation of cancer cells in a subject who has a cancer associated with a cancer-associated chromosomal feature. As used herein, to “inhibit the proliferation of a cancer cell” means to kill the cell, or permanently or temporarily arrest or slow the growth of the cell. Inhibition of cancer cell proliferation can be inferred if the number of such cells in the subject remains constant or decreases after administration of the miR gene products or miR gene expression-inhibiting compounds. An inhibition of cancer cell proliferation can also be inferred if the absolute number of such cells increases, but the rate of tumor growth decreases.

The number of cancer cells in a subject's body can be determined by direct measurement, or by estimation from the size of primary or metastatic tumor masses. For example, the number of cancer cells in a subject can be measured by immunohistological methods, flow cytometry, or other techniques designed to detect characteristic surface markers of cancer cells.

The size of a tumor mass can be ascertained by direct visual observation, or by diagnostic imaging methods, such as X-ray, magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, and scintigraphy. Diagnostic imaging methods used to ascertain size of the tumor mass can be employed with or without contrast agents, as is known in the art. The size of a tumor mass can also be ascertained by physical means, such as palpation of the tissue mass or measurement of the tissue mass with a measuring instrument, such as a caliper.

The miR gene products or miR gene expression-inhibiting compounds can be administered to a subject by any means suitable for delivering these compounds to cancer cells of the subject. For example, the miR gene products or miR expression inhibiting compounds can be administered by methods suitable to transfect cells of the subject with these compounds, or with nucleic acids comprising sequences encoding these compounds. In one embodiment, the cells are transfected with a plasmid or viral vector comprising sequences encoding at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibiting compound.

Transfection methods for eukaryotic cells are well known in the art, and include, for example, direct injection of the nucleic acid into the nucleus or pronucleus of a cell; electroporation; liposome transfer or transfer mediated by lipophilic materials; receptor-mediated nucleic acid delivery, bioballistic or particle acceleration; calcium phosphate precipitation, and transfection mediated by viral vectors.

For example, cells can be transfected with a liposomal transfer compound, such as, DOTAP (N-[1-(2,3-dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethyl-ammonium methylsulfate, Boehringer-Mannheim) or an equivalent, such as LIPOFECTIN. The amount of nucleic acid used is not critical to the practice of the invention; acceptable results may be achieved with 0.1-100 micrograms of nucleic acid/10⁵ cells. For example, a ratio of about 0.5 micrograms of plasmid vector in 3 micrograms of DOTAP per 10⁵ cells can be used.

A miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibiting compound can also be administered to a subject by any suitable enteral or parenteral administration route. Suitable enteral administration routes for the present methods include, for example, oral, rectal, or intranasal delivery. Suitable parenteral administration routes include, for example, intravascular administration (for example, intravenous bolus injection, intravenous infusion, intra-arterial bolus injection, intra-arterial infusion and catheter instillation into the vasculature); peri- and intra-tissue injection (for example, peri-tumoral and intra-tumoral injection, intra-retinal injection, or subretinal injection); subcutaneous injection or deposition, including subcutaneous infusion (such as by osmotic pumps); direct application to the tissue of interest, for example by a catheter or other placement device (for example, a retinal pellet or a suppository or an implant comprising a porous, non-porous, or gelatinous material); and inhalation. Particularly suitable administration routes are injection, infusion and direct injection into the tumor.

In the present methods, a miR gene product or miR gene product expression inhibiting compound can be administered to the subject either as naked RNA, in combination with a delivery reagent, or as a nucleic acid (for example, a recombinant plasmid or viral vector) comprising sequences that express the miR gene product or expression inhibiting compound. Suitable delivery reagents include, for example, the Mirus Transit TKO lipophilic reagent; lipofectin; lipofectamine; cellfectin; polycations (for example, polylysine), and liposomes.

Recombinant plasmids and viral vectors comprising sequences that express the miR gene products or miR gene expression inhibiting compounds, and techniques for delivering such plasmids and vectors to cancer cells, are discussed herein.

In a particular embodiment, liposomes are used to deliver a miR gene product or miR gene expression-inhibiting compound (or nucleic acids comprising sequences encoding them) to a subject. Liposomes can also increase the blood half-life of the gene products or nucleic acids. Suitable liposomes for use in the invention can be formed from standard vesicle-forming lipids, which generally include neutral or negatively charged phospholipids and a sterol, such as cholesterol. The selection of lipids is generally guided by consideration of factors, such as the desired liposome size and half-life of the liposomes in the blood stream. A variety of methods are known for preparing liposomes, for example, as described in Szoka et al. (1980), Ann. Rev. Biophys. Bioeng. 9:467; and U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,235,871, 4,501,728, 4,837,028, and 5,019,369, the entire disclosures of which are incorporated herein by reference.

The liposomes for use in the present methods can comprise a ligand molecule that targets the liposome to cancer cells. Ligands which bind to receptors prevalent in cancer cells, such as monoclonal antibodies that bind to tumor cell antigens, are preferred.

The liposomes for use in the present methods can also be modified so as to avoid clearance by the mononuclear macrophage system (“MMS”) and reticuloendothelial system (“RES”). Such modified liposomes have opsonization-inhibition moieties on the surface or incorporated into the liposome structure. In a particularly preferred embodiment, a liposome of the invention can comprise both opsonization-inhibition moieties and a ligand.

Opsonization-inhibiting moieties for use in preparing the liposomes of the invention are typically large hydrophilic polymers that are bound to the liposome membrane. As used herein, an opsonization inhibiting moiety is “bound” to a liposome membrane when it is chemically or physically attached to the membrane, for example, by the intercalation of a lipid-soluble anchor into the membrane itself, or by binding directly to active groups of membrane lipids. These opsonization-inhibiting hydrophilic polymers form a protective surface layer that significantly decreases the uptake of the liposomes by the MMS and RES; for example, as described in U.S. Pat. No. 4,920,016, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

Opsonization inhibiting moieties suitable for modifying liposomes are preferably water-soluble polymers with a number-average molecular weight from about 500 to about 40,000 daltons, and more preferably from about 2,000 to about 20,000 daltons. Such polymers include polyethylene glycol (PEG) or polypropylene glycol (PPG) derivatives; for example, methoxy PEG or PPG, and PEG or PPG stearate; synthetic polymers, such as polyacrylamide or poly N-vinyl pyrrolidone; linear, branched, or dendrimeric polyamidoamines; polyacrylic acids; polyalcohols, for example, polyvinylalcohol and polyxylitol to which carboxylic or amino groups are chemically linked, as well as gangliosides, such as ganglioside GM1. Copolymers of PEG, methoxy PEG, or methoxy PPG, or derivatives thereof, are also suitable. In addition, the opsonization inhibiting polymer can be a block copolymer of PEG and either a polyamino acid, polysaccharide, polyamidoamine, polyethyleneamine, or polynucleotide. The opsonization inhibiting polymers can also be natural polysaccharides containing amino acids or carboxylic acids, for example, galacturonic acid, glucuronic acid, mannuronic acid, hyaluronic acid, pectic acid, neuraminic acid, alginic acid, carrageenan; aminated polysaccharides or oligosaccharides (linear or branched); or carboxylated polysaccharides or oligosaccharides, for example, reacted with derivatives of carbonic acids with resultant linking of carboxylic groups. Preferably, the opsonization-inhibiting moiety is a PEG, PPG, or derivatives thereof. Liposomes modified with PEG or PEG-derivatives are sometimes called “PEGylated liposomes.”

The opsonization inhibiting moiety can be bound to the liposome membrane by any one of numerous well-known techniques. For example, an N-hydroxysuccinimide ester of PEG can be bound to a phosphatidyl-ethanolamine lipid-soluble anchor, and then bound to a membrane. Similarly, a dextran polymer can be derivatized with a stearylamine lipid-soluble anchor via reductive amination using Na(CN)BH₃ and a solvent mixture, such as tetrahydrofuran and water in a 30:12 ratio at 60° C.

Liposomes modified with opsonization-inhibition moieties remain in the circulation much longer than unmodified liposomes. For this reason, such liposomes are sometimes called “stealth” liposomes. Stealth liposomes are known to accumulate in tissues fed by porous or “leaky” microvasculature. Thus, tissue characterized by such microvasculature defects, for example solid tumors, will efficiently accumulate these liposomes; see Gabizon, et al. (1988), Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., U.S.A., 18:6949-53. In addition, the reduced uptake by the RES lowers the toxicity of stealth liposomes by preventing significant accumulation of the liposomes in the liver and spleen. Thus, liposomes that are modified with opsonization-inhibition moieties are particularly suited to deliver the miR gene products or miR gene expression inhibition compounds (or nucleic acids comprising sequences encoding them) to tumor cells.

The miR gene products or miR gene expression inhibition compounds can be formulated as pharmaceutical compositions, sometimes called “medicaments,” prior to administering them to a subject, according to techniques known in the art. Accordingly, the invention encompasses pharmaceutical compositions for treating breast cancer. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise at least one isolated miR gene product and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. In a particular embodiment, the at least one miR gene product corresponds to a miR gene product that has a decreased level of expression in breast cancer cells relative to suitable control cells. In certain embodiments the isolated miR gene product is selected from the group consisting of miR-145, miR-10b, miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, miR-101-1, miR-143 and combinations thereof.

In other embodiments, the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention comprise at least one miR expression inhibition compound. In a particular embodiment, the at least one miR gene expression inhibition compound is specific for a miR gene whose expression is greater in breast cancer cells than control cells. In certain embodiments, the miR gene expression inhibition compound is specific for one or more miR gene products selected from the group consisting of miR-21, miR-155, miR-009-1 (miR131-1), miR-34 (miR-170), miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-213, let-7i (let-7d-v2), miR-122a, miR-128b, miR-136, miR-149, miR-191, miR-196-1, miR-196-2, miR-202, miR-203, miR-206, miR-210, miR-213 and combinations thereof.

Pharmaceutical compositions of the present invention are characterized as being at least sterile and pyrogen-free. As used herein, “pharmaceutical formulations” include formulations for human and veterinary use. Methods for preparing pharmaceutical compositions of the invention are within the skill in the art, for example as described in Remington's Pharmaceutical Science, 17th ed., Mack Publishing Company, Easton, Pa. (1985), the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference.

The present pharmaceutical formulations comprise at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibition compound (or at least one nucleic acid comprising sequences encoding them) (for example, 0.1 to 90% by weight), or a physiologically acceptable salt thereof, mixed with a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. The pharmaceutical formulations of the invention can also comprise at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibition compound (or at least one nucleic acid comprising sequences encoding them) which are encapsulated by liposomes and a pharmaceutically-acceptable carrier. In one embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions comprise a miR gene or gene product that is not miR-15, miR-16, miR-143 and/or miR-145.

Especially suitable pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers are water, buffered water, normal saline, 0.4% saline, 0.3% glycine, hyaluronic acid and the like.

In a particular embodiment, the pharmaceutical compositions of the invention comprise at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibition compound (or at least one nucleic acid comprising sequences encoding them) which is resistant to degradation by nucleases. One skilled in the art can readily synthesize nucleic acids which are nuclease resistant, for example by incorporating one or more ribonucleotides that are modified at the 2′-position into the miR gene products. Suitable 2′-modified ribonucleotides include those modified at the 2′-position with fluoro, amino, alkyl, alkoxy, and O-allyl.

Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can also comprise conventional pharmaceutical excipients and/or additives. Suitable pharmaceutical excipients include stabilizers, antioxidants, osmolality adjusting agents, buffers, and pH adjusting agents. Suitable additives include, for example, physiologically biocompatible buffers (for example, tromethamine hydrochloride), additions of chelants (such as, for example, DTPA or DTPA-bisamide) or calcium chelate complexes (such as, for example, calcium DTPA, CaNaDTPA-bisamide), or, optionally, additions of calcium or sodium salts (for example, calcium chloride, calcium ascorbate, calcium gluconate or calcium lactate). Pharmaceutical compositions of the invention can be packaged for use in liquid form, or can be lyophilized.

For solid pharmaceutical compositions of the invention, conventional nontoxic solid pharmaceutically-acceptable carriers can be used; for example, pharmaceutical grades of mannitol, lactose, starch, magnesium stearate, sodium saccharin, talcum, cellulose, glucose, sucrose, magnesium carbonate, and the like.

For example, a solid pharmaceutical composition for oral administration can comprise any of the carriers and excipients listed above and 10-95%, preferably 25%-75%, of the at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibition compound (or at least one nucleic acid comprising sequences encoding them). A pharmaceutical composition for aerosol (inhalational) administration can comprise 0.01-20% by weight, preferably 1%-10% by weight, of the at least one miR gene product or miR gene expression inhibition compound (or at least one nucleic acid comprising sequences encoding them) encapsulated in a liposome as described above, and a propellant. A carrier can also be included as desired; for example, lecithin for intranasal delivery.

The invention also encompasses methods of identifying an anti-breast cancer agent, comprising providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product in the cell. In one embodiment, the method comprises providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product associated with decreased expression levels in breast cancer cells. An increase in the level of the miR gene product in the cell, relative to a suitable control cell, is indicative of the test agent being an anti-breast cancer agent. In a particular embodiment, at least one miR gene product associated with decreased expression levels in breast cancer cells is selected from the group consisting of miR-145, miR-10b, miR-123 (miR-126), miR-140-as, miR-125a, miR-125b-1, miR-125b-2, miR-194, miR-204, let-7a-2, let-7a-3, let-7d (let-7d-v1), let-7f-2, miR-101-1, miR-143 and combinations thereof.

In other embodiments the method comprises providing a test agent to a cell and measuring the level of at least one miR gene product associated with increased expression levels in breast cancer cells. A decrease in the level of the miR gene product in the cell, relative to a suitable control cell, is indicative of the test agent being an anti-breast cancer agent. In a particular embodiment, at least one miR gene product associated with increased expression levels in breast cancer cells is selected from the group consisting of miR-21, miR-155, miR-009-1 (miR131-1), miR-34 (miR-170), miR-102 (miR-29b), miR-213, let-7i (let-7d-v2), miR-122a, miR-128b, miR-136, miR-149, miR-191, miR-196-1, miR-196-2, miR-202, miR-203, miR-206, miR-210, miR-213 and combinations thereof.

Suitable agents include, but are not limited to drugs (for example, small molecules, peptides), and biological macromolecules (for example, proteins, nucleic acids). The agent can be produced recombinantly, synthetically, or it may be isolated (i.e., purified) from a natural source. Various methods for providing such agents to a cell (for example, transfection) are well known in the art, and several of such methods are described hereinabove. Methods for detecting the expression of at least one miR gene product (for example, Northern blotting, in situ hybridization, RT-PCR, expression profiling) are also well known in the art. Several of these methods are also described hereinabove.

The invention will now be illustrated by the following non-limiting examples.

Example 1 Identification of a microRNA Expression Signature that Discriminates Breast Cancer Tissues from Normal Tissues

Materials and Methods

Breast Cancer Samples and Cell Lines.

RNAs from primary tumors were obtained from 76 samples collected at the University of Ferrara (Italy), Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori, Milano (Italy) and Thomas Jefferson University (Philadelphia, Pa.). Clinico-pathological information was available for 58 tumor samples. RNA from normal samples consisted of 6 pools of RNA from 5 normal breast tissues each, as well as RNA from 4 additional single breast tissues. Breast cancer RNAs were also obtained from the following cell lines: Hs578-T, MCF7, T47D, BT20, SK-BR-3, HBL100, HCC2218, MDA-MB-175, MDA-MB-231, MDA-MB-361, MDA-MB-435, MDA-MB-436, MDA-MB-453 and MDAMB-468.

miRNA Microarray.

Total RNA isolation was performed with Trizol Reagent (Invitrogen) according to the manufacturer's instructions. RNA labeling and hybridization on microRNA microarray chips was performed as previously described (Liu, C.-G., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 101:9740-9744 (2004)). Briefly, 5 μg of RNA from each sample was labeled with biotin during reverse transcription using random hexamers. Hybridization was carried out on a miRNA microarray chip (KCl version 1.0), which contains 368 probes, including 245 human and mouse miRNA genes, in triplicate. Hybridization signals were detected by binding of biotin to a Streptavidin-Alexa647 conjugate using a Perkin-Elmer ScanArray XL5K. Scanner images were quantified by the Quantarray software (Perkin Elmer).

Statistical and bioinformatic analysis of microarray data. Raw data were normalized and analyzed using the GeneSpring® software, version 7.2 (SiliconGenetics, Redwood City, Calif.). Expression data were median centered. Statistical comparisons were performed by ANOVA (Analysis of Variance), using the Benjamini and Hochberg correction for reduction of false positives. Prognostic miRNAs for tumor or normal class prediction were determined using both the PAM software (Prediction Analysis of Microarrays) (Tibshirani, R., et al. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 99:6567-6572 (2002)) and the Support Vector Machine (Furey, T. S., et al. Bioinformatics 16: 906-914 (2000)) software. Both algorithms were used for Cross-validation and Test-set prediction. All data were submitted using MIAMExpress to the Array Express database.

Northern Blotting.

Northern blot analysis was performed as previously described (Calin, G. A., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 99:15524-29 (2002)). RNA samples (10 μg each) were electrophoresed on 15% acrylamide, 7 M urea Criterion pre-casted gels (Bio-Rad) and transferred onto Hybond-N+ membrane (Amersham Pharmacia Biotech). The hybridization was performed at 37° C. in 7% sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)/0.2M Na₂PO₄ (pH 7.0) for 16 hours. Membranes were washed twice at 42° C. with 2× standard saline phosphate (0.18 M NaCl/10 mM phosphate, pH 7.4), supplemented with 1 mM EDTA (SSPE) and 0.1% SDS, and twice with 0.5×SSPE/0.1% SDS. Oligonucleotide probes were complementary to the sequence of the corresponding mature microRNA (see Sanger miR Registry): miR-21 5′-TCA ACA TCA GTC TGA TAA GCT A-3′ (SEQ ID NO:287); miR-125b1: 5′-TCA CAA GTT AGG GTC TCA GGG A-3′ (SEQ ID NO:288); miR-145: 5′-AAG GGA TTC CTG GGA AAA CTG GAC-3′ (SEQ ID NO:289). An oligonucleotide that was complementary to the U6 RNA (5′-GCA GGG GCC ATG CTA ATC TTC TCT GTA TCG-3′ (SEQ ID NO:290)) was used for normalizing expression levels. 200 μg of each probe was end labeled with 100 mCi [gamma-³²P]-ATP using a polynucleotide kinase (Roche). Northern Blots were stripped in a boiling 0.1% SDS solution for 10 minutes before re-hybridization.

Results

A microRNA microarray (Liu, C.-G., et al., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 101:9740-9744 (2004)) was used to generate microRNA expression profiles for 10 normal and 76 neoplastic breast tissues. Each tumor sample was derived from a single specimen, while 6 of the 10 normal samples consisted of pools of RNA made from five different normal breast tissues. Hence, 34 normal breast samples were actually examined in the study.

To identify miRNAs that were differentially-expressed between normal and tumor samples, and, therefore, can be used to distinguish normal from cancerous breast tissues, analyses of variance and class prediction statistical tools were utilized. Results of the ANOVA analysis on normalized data generated a profile of differentially-expressed miRNAs (p<0.05) between normal and cancerous breast tissues (Table 2). Cluster analysis, based on differentially-expressed miRNA, generated a tree having a clear distinction between normal and cancer tissues (FIG. 1A).

To accurately identify a set of predictive miRNAs capable of differentiating normal from breast cancer tissues, we used Support Vector Machine (GeneSpring software) and PAM (Prediction Analysis of Micro arrays). Results from the two class prediction analyses largely overlapped (Table 3 and FIG. 1B). Among the miRNAs listed in Table 3, 11 of 15 have an ANOVA p-value of less than 0.05. To confirm the results obtained by microarray analysis, we performed Northern blot analysis to assess expression levels for a subset of microRNAs, namely, mir-125b, mir-145 and mir-21, that were differentially-expressed in normal and cancerous breast tissues. Northern blot analysis confirmed results obtained by microarray analysis. In many cases, expression differences appeared stronger than those anticipated by the microarray studies (FIG. 1C).

Of the 29 miRNAs whose expression is significantly (p<0.05) deregulated according to the microarray analysis, a set of 15 miRNAs were able to correctly predict the nature of the sample analyzed (i.e., normal vs. tumor) with 100% accuracy. Among the differentially-expressed miRNAs, miR-10b, miR-125b, miR145, miR-21 and miR-155 were the most consistently deregulated miRNAs in breast cancer samples. Three of these, namely, miR-10b, miR-125b and miR-145, were down-regulated, while the remaining two, miR-21 and miR-155, were up-regulated, suggesting that they might act as tumor suppressor genes or oncogenes, respectively.

Example 2 Determination of Putative Gene Targets of miRNAs that are Deregulated in Breast Cancer Tissues

At present, the lack of knowledge about bona fide miRNA gene targets hampers a full understanding of which biological functions are deregulated in cancers characterized by aberrant miRNA expression. To identify putative targets of the most significantly de-regulated miRNAs from our study: miR-10b, miR125b, miR-145, miR-21 and miR-155 (see Example 1), we utilized multiple computational approaches. In particular, the analysis was performed using three algorithms, miRanda, TargetScan and PicTar, which are used to predict human miRNA gene targets (Enright, A. J., et al. Genome Biol. 5:R1 (2003); Lewis, B. P. et al., Cell 115:787-798 (2003); Krek, A., et al., Nat. Genet. 37:495-500 (2005)). The results obtained using each of the three algorithms were cross-referenced with one another to validate putative targets, and only targets that were identified by at least 2 of the 3 algorithms were considered. Results of this analysis are presented in Table 4.

Several genes with potential oncogenic functions were identified as putative targets of miRNAs that are down-regulated in breast cancer samples. Notably, oncogenes were identified as targets of miR-10b (for example, FLT1, the v-crk homolog, the growth factor BDNF and the transducing factor SHC1), miR-125b (for example, YES, ETS1, TEL, AKT3, the growth factor receptor FGFR2 and members of the mitogen-activated signal transduction pathway VTS58635, MAP3K10, MAP3K11, MAPK14), and miR-145 (for example, MYCN, FOS, YES and FLI1, integration site of Friend leukemia virus, cell cycle promoters, such as cyclins D2 and L1, MAPK transduction proteins, such as MAP3K3 and MAP4K4). The proto-oncogene, YES, and the core-binding transcription factor, CBFB, were determined to be potential targets of both miR-125 and miR-145.

Consistent with these findings, multiple tumor suppressor genes were identified as targets of miR-21 and miR-155, miRNAs that are up-regulated in breast cancer cells. For miR-21, the TGFB gene was predicted as target by all three methods. For miR-155, potential targets included the tumor suppressor genes, SOCS1 and APC, and the kinase, WEE1, which blocks the activity of Cdc2 and prevents entry into mitosis. The hypoxia inducible factor, HIF1A, was also a predicted target of miR-155. Notably, the tripartite motif-containing protein TRIM2, the proto-oncogene, SKI, and the RAS homologs, RAB6A and RAB6C, were found as potential targets of both miR-21 and miR-155.

Example 3 Bio-Pathological Features and microRNA Expression

Materials and Methods

Immunohistochemical Analysis of Breast Cancer Samples.

Staining procedures were performed as described (Querzoli, P., et al., Anal. Quant. Cytol. Histol. 21:151-160 (1999)). Hormonal receptors were evaluated with 6F11 antibody for estrogen receptor α (ER) and PGR-1A6 antibody for progesterone receptor (PR) (Ventana, Tucson, Ariz., U.S.A.). The proliferation index was assessed with MIB1 antibody (DAKO, Copenhagen). ERBB2 was detected with CB11 antibody (Ventana, Tucson, Ariz., U.S.A.) and p53 protein expression was examined with DO7 antibody (Ventana, Tucson, Ariz., U.S.A.). Only tumor cells with distinct nuclear immunostaining for ER, PR, Mib1 and p53 were recorded as positive. Tumor cells were considered positive for ERBB2 when they showed distinct membrane immunoreactivity.

To perform a quantitative analysis of the expression of these various biological markers, the Eureka Menarini computerized image analysis system was used. For each tumor section, at least 20 microscopic fields of invasive carcinoma were measured using a 40× objective. The following cut-off values were employed: 10% of positive nuclear area for ER, PR, c-erbB2 and p53, 13% of nuclei expressing Mib1 was introduced to discriminate cases with high and low proliferative activity.

Results

To evaluate whether a correlation exists between various bio-pathological features associated with breast cancer and the expression of particular miRNAs, we generated and compared miRNA expression profiles for various cancer samples associated with the presence or absence of a particular breast cancer feature. In particular, we analyzed breast cancers with lobular or ductal histotypes, breast cancers with differential expression of either estrogen receptor alpha (ER) or progesterone receptor, and breast cancers with differences in lymph node metastasis, vascular invasion, proliferation index, and expression of ERBB2 and p53.

Expression profiles of lobular or ductal and +/−ERBB2 expression classes did not reveal any microRNAs that were differentially-expressed, while all other comparisons revealed a small number of differentially-expressed microRNAs (P<0.05). The results of this analysis are shown in FIG. 4.

Differentially-expressed miRNA families were identified for various bio-pathological features that are associated with human breast cancer. For example, all miR-30 miRNAs are down-regulated in both ER− and PR− tumors, suggesting that expression of miR-30 miRNAs is regulated by these hormones. In addition, the expression of various let-7 miRNAs was down-regulated in breast cancer samples with either lymph node metastasis or a high proliferation index, suggesting that reduced let-7 expression could be associated with a poor prognosis, a result that is consistent with previous findings. The discovery that the let-7 family of miRNAs regulates the expression of members of the RAS oncogene family provides a potential explanation for the role of let-7 miRNAs in human cancer.

miR-145 and miR-21, two miRNAs whose expression could differentiate cancer or normal tissues, were also differentially-expressed in cancers with a different proliferation index or different tumor stage. In particular, miR-145 is progressively down-regulated from normal breast to cancers with a high proliferation index. Similarly, miR-21 is progressively up-regulated from normal breast to cancers with high tumor stage. These findings suggest that deregulation of these two miRNAs may affect critical molecular events involved in tumor progression.

Another miRNA potentially involved in cancer progression is miR-9-3. miR-9-3 was downregulated in breast cancers with either high vascular invasion or lymph node metastasis, suggesting that its down-regulation was acquired during the course of tumor progression and, in particular, during the acquisition of metastatic potential.
